1. iPhone X

Although Apple phones will be sold at discounted prices of up to 20%, the iPhone X will only be sold at about a 4% discount — which is also very reasonable. Originally ₦280,000 on the platform, the device will be sold for ₦269,900 on the fifth day of the Mobile week promotion. If you have ever wanted to use Apple’s first notched-display flagship, here’s your chance to do so at a discounted price.

2. Xiaomi Redmi Note 7

On the third day of the Mobile Week promotion, Jumia would sell 100 units of Xiaomi’s latest mid-range smartphone, the Redmi Note 7, for ₦47,990 — a whopping 17% discount off the original ₦58,000 recommended retail price. Considering the specs of the device, plus the fact that the device is one of Xiaomi’s newest device in the market, this is a steal.

3. iPhone 7

This is yet another Apple product on this list. We don’t have a bias towards Apple products but when a retailer decides to slash more than ₦25,000 off the regular price of a product, we think it’s best to grab the product while the offer lasts. Jumia would “flash sale” 50 units of the iPhone 7 smartphone for ₦69,990 on the first day of its Mobile Week event at a 28% discount.

4. Tecno Camon C11

If a smartphone with 3GB RAM, 32GB of internal storage, dual 13MP + 2MP camera, 16MP AI selfie camera, and 6.2-inch full-view display interests you, then you should log on to Jumia from May 6th to cop the midrange beauty from Tecno Mobile for ₦42,000 only.
